Article does not meet WP:GNG. Koala15 (talk) 04:36, 5 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This article most certainly does meet WP:GNG. Click on the news and books links above. The current version of the article gives no indication that the article meets GNG, but reading it gives a clear feel that he is some type of underground/cult legend. My first thought was: I wonder what the two cover stories were that are associated with his appearances on the covers of magazines. I felt relieved to see the extent of aforementioned search results. Please keep and please encourage the involved editors to wikify this article with WP:ICs.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 13:17, 5 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The sources currently present in the article (Chicago Tribune + Allmusic bio) suggest it is possible to write a well referenced article about this artist. See also [1]. --Vejvančický (talk / contribs) 14:11, 12 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Article could do with a cleanup, but there are already 2 sources in the article that show WP:GNG & WP:MUSICBIO are met. — sparklism ^hey! 16:01, 18 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
